Overview:

By Sunday, D-plus7, the beleaguered British 1st Airborne had contracted into a tight knot around the village, anchored by positions on the north bank of the Lower Rhine. Just across the water were friendly forces, but their every attempt to reach the Red Devils had failed. Within the shrinking perimeter the situation was critical. Ammunition was short and for every three men fit for combat, there were two seriously wounded. At 1030 hours, a truce was arranged for the transfer of British wounded into German care. No sooner had this operation been completed, than the shelling began anew. With it came a determined German attack intended to push the paratroopers away from the riverbank and, consequently, their tenuous link with Allied troops to the south.
Attacker: German (SS) (SS-Panzer Division 9 and sPzAbt. 506)
Defender: British (2nd South Staffordshires)

Add 8 “?” to the British OB. Add the following SSR: “5. Prior to play the British player may secretly record which units possess PIATs. The presence of a PIAT will be revealed when the possessing unit fires/transfers/drops the PIAT in LOS and within 16 hexes of an unbroken enemy unit, or is no longer Good Order.”. Replace the British balance with “Add one 3‑3‑8 to the British OB.”. Replace the German balance with “Delete the 8 “?” from the British OB.”MMP

2021-09-18(D) Will Willow vs F. Schwarz German (SS) winMF FtF
2021-03-21(D) Ken Rutkowski vs Bill T British winThis is a fun scenario. The German malfunctioned one of his tigers early in the game. It looked real good for my Brit's until turn 5 when I lost the 10-3 leader to a sniper and my 9-2 became a hero then was wounded. Then suffered a subsequent wound sending him to the graveyard. Two turns with only a 9-1 leader left seemed to be a daunting task. The British squads survived numerous attacks in turn 6. A desperate attempt to take the required victory hexes by the Germans was stopped by a wounded hero with a 2 ift -3drm attack on his 9-2 SS leader and 658 squad. Broke the squad and pinned the leader. My only SMC 9-1 with a crew stopped two 658 squads, a 7-0 leader and a half squad with a 4-3 attack and the remaining 2FP residual finished stopped the rest. Again a really fun scenario that went down to the last turn.
2021-03-19(A) Rick Galli vs Brian Kaschyk British win
2021-01-01(D) Kevin Duval vs Dwayne Duval German (SS) winBritish forward defense was mostly bypassed which then forced my units to try and pick their way back to VC ... too late.
